Rented to the world
We were rented to the world
To pay our debt, they let loose the dreams
Hope that gave us strength, joined the wind-
A wind that blew the cold through our wounded hearts.
We were rented to the world
Tossing away our cloth of modesty
Branding ourselves with a sense of inferiority
Appearance became our proof of power.
We sought the opinion of digital friends
A relationship built on threads of technology
Likes and comments were all we needed
To feel our best and run the world.
A price that will be paid by our youth
And old age will relive the days of regret
Yet we still have one of the billion minds
Rented to the world .
